Hello, Librodo! Once again I have the pleasure of looking more closely at one of your images. As if one of your images needed to be critiqued.
;>)
About all I can really say is what I said last time I viewed one of your very fine photographs:
"You have a lovely image here and have been richly rewarded by our voters.
"There is little I can tell you on how to "improve" this image, so with thanks for the opportunity to view it once again, I shall move on to the next image in the Critique Club queue."
Lol! What is up with you and always getting the red ribbon :) I am heading over to DPC stats and see if you don´t hold the record for most red ribbons on this site :)
Anyway, congrats on yet another ribbon, I think it´s finally time I added you to my favorites list, thought I did so a long time ago.
Here I see the opposite faces of life: it must be strong to survive if you are unlucky, but your soul never stops to be happy for life. The high intensity of the eye-catching, the mother instinct of the sister protecting the brother and the happiness of the smile, all they produce a picture full of life.
The expression of the girl on the right seems out of place compared to the rest, particularly the young man sitting next to her. Maybe that's what makes this work so well.
For me, this would be a much more powerful image had the girl on the right been cropped out. The other four have such serious, haunting expressions, yet she is smiling and offering a peace sign. I love the tones of your image.
extremely powerful image...until my eyes drift to the right. The laughter and bold peace sign take away from the powerful expressions of the four children...makes it looked like there's a joke. If the image were cropped differently this would be a 10. 6 as is.
I would have prefered that the girl flashing the peace sign be cropped out. Maybe just include the two children on the left - I think they are the most dynamic. Great focus - love the tone.
too bad the kid on the right is flashing a peace sign with a grin... much more powerful had he been cropped or if there was another take where all were serious looking
